Intraday Volume Rating [Honestcowboy]The Intraday Volume Rating aims to provide a clearer picture of what volume is telling you on intraday charts.
What is different to other forms of volume analysis
While Volume averages and other measures of volume base their calculations on the previous bars on the chart (for example bars 1954 to 1968). The average volume in this indicator measures expected volume during that time of the day.
🔷 Why would you take this approach?
Markets behave different during certain times of the day, also called sessions.
Here are a couple examples.
Asian Session (generally low volatility)
London Session (bigger volatility starts)
New York Session (overlap of New York with London creates huge volatility)
Generally when using other types of volume averaging it does not take into account these sessions and that the market has a pattern for volume in an intraday chart.
🔷 CALCULATION
Think of this script like an average of volume but instead it uses past days data instead of previous bars data.
This is a chart explaining the indicator this script is based on The same principle applies but instead we measure volume at each bar of the day.
The script also counts the number of bars that exist in a day on your current timeframe chart. After knowing that number it creates the matrix used in it's calculations and data storage.
See how it works perfectly on a lower timeframe chart below:
Getting this right was the hardest part, check the coding if you are interested in this type of stuff. I commented every step in the coding process.
Every setting of the script is commented so no need for further explanation, enjoy!

Short Volume StamperHello!
BE SURE TO RUN THE SCRIPT WITH BAR REPLAY TO SEE WHAT IT DOES! I hope you like it!
This script calculates the total short volume, total volume, and the short volume / total volume ratio since the 2-year high price. In addition, the approximate dollar value of all short volume since the 2-year high, and the approximate dollar value of all non-short sell volume since the 2-year high is calculated using VWAP. A red line (short interest ratio >= 20%) connects the 2-year high to current session’s high price; a green line (short interest ratio < 20%) connects the 2-year high to the current session’s high.
The script also “stamps” sessions in which a NEW 1-year high in SHORT volume is achieved, and when a PIVOT POINT high is achieved (highest high over 51 sessions). When a new high in short volume is achieved the script aggregates the total volume and short volume for the 5 sessions prior to the new high, the session of the new high, and the 4 sessions after the new high (10 sessions). Additional volume calculations are performed for the 10 session period!
When a pivot point high is achieved the script aggregates the total volume and short volume for the 3 sessions prior to the pivot high, the session of the pivot high, and the 2 sessions after the new high (6 sessions). Additional volume calculations are performed for the 6 session period!
Red labels, red boxes, and red lines indicate a short volume ratio greater than or equal to 20% over the corresponding period!
Green labels, green boxes, and green lines indicate a short volume ratio less than 20% over the corresponding period!
Average Volume at Time (AVAT)Calculation of average volume at current time for a number of previous sessions, known as Average Volume at Time (AVAT).
Inputs:
* period to use for accumulation. "D" is the default value, useful to view data for each session.
* number of previous sessions to average
TODO: more intelligent accumulation of number of bars in a session, since there may be sessions with different values
TODO: interpolate volume according to current time, inside of the last bar
TDO & Hit Rates by Weekday (5 min)Purpose
Tracks how often the next NY session “hits” the previous day’s True Day Open (TDO) level, separately for sessions that open above vs. below TDO, and breaks the statistics down by weekday (Mon–Fri) plus an overall summary.
Key Features
True Day Open (TDO) Plot
Captures the prior day’s 23:00 CT close price as the TDO.
Plots it as a continuous yellow line across your chart.
Session Labeling
At the end of each NY session (08:30–15:00 CT), places a small “TDO” label at the TDO price to confirm visually where it lay during that day.
Hit‑Count Logic
For each 5 min bar in the NY session, checks if the bar’s high ≥ TDO ≥ low (i.e. the TDO level was “hit”).
Classifies each session by whether its opening price (first 5 min bar) was above or below the TDO.
Weekday Statistics Table
Displays in the bottom‑left of your main chart window.
Rows: Header, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, All.
Columns:
% Hit Above: % of “above‑TDO” sessions that saw at least one hit
% Hit Below: % of “below‑TDO” sessions that saw at least one hit
Automatically updates in real time as new sessions complete.
Inputs & Settings
Data Resolution: Default = 5 min; use any intraday timeframe you like (1, 3, 15 min, etc.).
Extended Hours: Make sure your chart’s Extended Session (overnight) is enabled so the 23:00 CT bar exists.
Overlay: Draws directly on your price chart (no separate pane).
How to Use
Add to Chart: Paste the Pine v5 code into TradingView’s editor and apply to your ES (or other) futures chart.
Enable Overnight Bars: In Chart Settings → Symbol/Session → include Extended Hours.
Select Timeframe: Set the chart (or the indicator’s “Data Resolution” input) to 5 min (or your preferred intraday).
Read the Table:
Each weekday row shows how reliable TDO touches have been historically, separately for “above” and “below” opens.
The bottom “All” row summarizes combined performance.
What You Learn
Edge Analysis: Do sessions opening above TDO tend to test that level more often than those opening below (or vice versa)?
Day‑of‑Week Bias: Are certain weekdays more prone to TDO retests?
Overall Confidence: The “All” row lets you see your full-sample hit‑rate on both sides.
Fib Speed Resistance Fan"Fib Speed Resistance Fan," automatically draws Fibonacci Speed Resistance Fan lines based on the first and third candles of the trading session. Here’s a breakdown of its functionality:
Functionality
Session Start Time Identification
The script identifies the first candle at 9:15 AM using timestamp(), which ensures it captures the market's opening candle.
Candle Indexing
It determines the index of the first candle (firstCandleIndex) using ta.barssince(time >= sessionStart).
The third candle is found by adding two bars to the first candle's index (thirdCandleIndex = firstCandleIndex + 2).
Ensuring Single Execution
A boolean flag hasDrawn ensures that the lines are drawn only once and do not update on future candles.
Validating Data
It checks if the firstCandleIndex and thirdCandleIndex are valid (validSession).
If conditions are met, it extracts the highs and lows of the first and third candles.
Fibonacci Calculation
The script calculates a 0.75 level price between the first candle high/low and third candle low/high.
This level helps in drawing intermediate Fibonacci fan lines.
Drawing the Fibonacci Speed Resistance Fan
If conditions are valid and hasDrawn is false, the script draws:
Main fan lines from:
First candle high → Third candle low (Blue line)
First candle low → Third candle high (Blue line)
Candle Open Time labels (& TAPDA Lines)Description of the "4-Hour Candle Opening Times (TAPDA Lines)" Indicator
The "4-Hour Candle Opening Times (TAPDA Lines)" indicator integrates key principles of the Time and Price Action Trading Algorithm (TAPTA) with practical tools for analyzing market behavior. This script is designed for traders who leverage the interaction between time and price to identify opportunities in the market. The indicator supports the identification of significant price levels and potential areas of interest based on historical data and recurring patterns tied to specific timeframes.
Core Concepts
Time and Price Interaction (TAPTA Logic):
The script implements TAPTA principles by focusing on time intervals (4-hour candles) and the price action associated with those intervals.
Traders use this logic to recognize how prices behave at specific times, identifying patterns, levels of support or resistance, and potential reversals.
Highs and Lows Recognition (TAPDA):
The indicator includes logic for identifying and marking "Tapped Highs and Lows," which occur when price action retraces to previously significant levels within a specified tolerance. These taps are visually represented with horizontal lines, enabling traders to spot recurring price behaviors and levels of interest.
Dynamic Levels for Decision-Making:
By combining time and price, the script visualizes key price levels and their relevance over time, equipping traders with actionable insights for entry, exit, and risk management.
Indicator Features
1. Visual Representation of Candle Opening Times
The indicator marks the opening times of 4-hour candles on the chart.
A customizable label system displays the time in either a 12-hour or 24-hour format, with options to toggle the visibility of AM/PM suffixes.
2. TAPDA Logic
Identifies and highlights price levels that have been tapped within a specified tolerance.
Horizontal lines are drawn to mark these levels, allowing traders to see historical price levels acting as support or resistance.
The "Tapped Highs and Lows" are updated dynamically based on the most recent price action.
3. Timeframe-Specific Filtering
Users can limit the display to specific times of interest, such as 2 AM, 6 AM, and 10 AM, by toggling the "GCT (General Candle Times)" option.
Additional options allow filtering TAPDA logic by AM or PM timeframes, catering to traders who focus on specific market sessions.
4. Adjustable Plotting Limits
The script incorporates settings for controlling the maximum number of labels and lines displayed on the chart:
Max Labels: Limits the number of labels plotted for 4-hour candle opening times.
Max TAPDA Lines: Limits the number of TAPDA horizontal lines displayed.
A "Sync Lines and Labels" option ensures the same number of labels and lines are plotted when enabled, providing a consistent and clutter-free visualization.
5. Plot Maximum Capability
A "Plot Max" feature allows users to override the default behavior and force the plotting of the maximum allowed labels and lines, providing a comprehensive view of historical data.
6. User-Friendly Customization
Fully customizable label styles, including options for position, size, color, and background opacity.
Adjustable tolerance levels for TAPDA lines ensure compatibility with different market conditions and trading strategies.
Settings for flipping or aligning label positions above or below candles, or locking them to the opening price.
Script Logic
The script is built to prioritize efficiency and clarity, adhering to TradingView's Pine Script best practices and community standards:
Initialization:
Arrays are used to store historical price data, including highs, lows, and timestamps, ensuring only the necessary amount of data is processed.
A flexible and efficient data management system maintains a rolling window of data for both labels and TAPDA lines, ensuring smooth performance.
Label and Line Plotting:
Labels are plotted dynamically at user-defined positions and styles to mark the opening times of 4-hour candles.
TAPDA lines are drawn between historical high or low points and the current price action when the tolerance condition is met.
Limit Management:
The script enforces limits on the number of labels and lines plotted on the chart to maintain visual clarity.
Users can enable synchronization between the maximum labels and lines to ensure consistent visualization.
Customization Options:
Extensive customization settings allow traders to tailor the indicator to their strategies and preferences, including:
Label and line styles.
Session filtering (AM, PM, or specific times).
Display limits and synchronization options.
Capabilities
1. Enhance Time-Based Analysis
By marking significant times (4-hour candle openings), traders can identify key market phases and recurring behaviors tied to specific hours.
2. Leverage Historical Price Action
TAPDA logic highlights areas where price action interacts with historical highs and lows, providing actionable insights into potential support or resistance zones.
3. Improve Decision-Making
The indicator supports informed decision-making by blending visual data with time and price action principles, helping traders spot opportunities and mitigate risks.
4. Flexible Application Across Strategies
Suitable for day traders, swing traders, and position traders who utilize time and price action for trend analysis, reversals, or breakout strategies.
Best Practices for Use
Key Levels Analysis:
Focus on labels and TAPDA lines near critical price zones to gauge potential market reactions.
Session-Based Trading:
Use AM/PM filters or GCT settings to isolate specific trading sessions relevant to your strategy.
Combine with Other Indicators:
Enhance the effectiveness of this indicator by combining it with moving averages, RSI, or other tools for confirmation.
Risk Management:
Use the identified levels for stop-loss placement or target setting to align with your risk tolerance.
Market Internals (TICK, ADD, VOLD, TRIN, VIX)OVERVIEW
This script allows you to perform data transformations on Market Internals, across exchanges, and specify signal parameters, to more easily identify sentiment extremes.
Notable transformations include:
1. Cumulative session values
2. Directional bull-bear Ratios and Percent Differences
3. Data Normalization
4. Noise Reduction
This kind of data interaction is very useful for understanding the relationship between two mutually exclusive metrics, which is the essence of Market Internals: Up vs. Down. Even so, they are not possible with symbol expressions alone. And the kind of symbol expression needed to produce baseline data that can be reliably transformed is opaque to most traders, made worse by the fact that prerequisite symbol expressions themselves are not uniform across symbols. It's very nuanced, and if this last bit was confusing … exactly.
All this to say, rather than forcing that burden onto you, I've baked the baseline symbol expressions into the indicator so: 1) the transform functions consistently ingest the baseline data in the correct format and 2) you don't have to spend time trying to figure it all out. Trading is hard. There's no need to make it harder.
INPUTS
Indicator
Allows you to specify the base Market Internal and Exchange data to use. The list of Market Internals is simplified to their fundamental representation (TICK, ADD, VOLD, TRIN, VIX, ABVD, TKCD), and the list of Exchange data is limited to the most common (NYSE, NASDAQ, All US Stocks). There are also options for basic exchange combinations (Sum or Average of NYSE & NASDAQ).
Mode
Short for "Plot Mode", this is where you specify the bars style (Candles, Bars, Line, Circles, Columns) and the source value (used for single value plots and plot color changes).
Scale
This is the first and second data transformation grouped together. The default is to show the origin data as it might appear on a chart. You can then specify if each bar should retain it's unique value (Bar Value) or be added to a running total (Cumulative). You can also specify if you would like the data to remain unaltered (Raw) or converted to a directional ratio (Ratio) or a percentage (Percent Diff). These options determine the scale of the plot.
Both Ratio and Percent Diff. convert a given symbol into a positive or negative number, where positive numbers are bullish and negative numbers are bearish.
Ratio will divide Bull values by Bear values, then further divide -1 by the quotient if it is less than 1. For example, if "0.5" was the quotient, the Ratio would be "-2".
Percent Diff. subtracts Bear values from Bull values, then divides that difference by the sum of Bull and Bear values multiplied by 100. If a Bull value was "3" and Bear value was "7", the difference would be "-4", the sum would be "10", and the Percent Diff. would be "-40", as the difference is both bearish and 40% of total.
Ratio Norm. Threshold
This is the third data transformation . While quotients can be less than 1, directional ratios are never less than 1. This can lead to barcode-like artifacts as plots transition between positive and negative values, visually suggesting the change is much larger than it actually is. Normalizing the data can resolve this artifact, but undermines the utility of ratios. If, however, only some of the data is normalized, the artifact can be resolved without jeopardizing its contextual usefulness.
The utility of ratios is how quickly they communicate proportional differences. For example, if one side is twice as big as the other, "2" communicates this efficiently. This necessarily means the numerical value of ratios is worth preserving. Also, below a certain threshold, the utility of ratios is diminished. For example, an equal distribution being represented as 0, 1, 1:1, 50/50, etc. are all equally useful. Thus, there is a threshold, above which we want values to be exact, and below which the utility of linear visual continuity is more important. This setting accounts for that threshold.
When this setting is enabled, a ratio will be normalized to 0 when 1:1, scaled linearly toward the specified threshold when greater than 1:1, and then retain its exact value when the threshold is crossed. For example, with a threshold of "2", 1:1 = 0, 1.5:1 = 1, 2:1 = 2, 3:1 = 3, etc.
With all this in mind, most traders will want to set the ratios threshold at a level where accuracy becomes more important than visual continuity. If this level is unknown, "2" is a good baseline.
Reset cumulative total with each new session
Cumulative totals can be retained indefinitely or be reset each session. When enabled, each session has its own cumulative total. When disabled, the cumulative total is maintained indefinitely.
Show Signal Ranges
Because everything in this script is designed to make identifying sentiment extremes easier, an obvious inclusion would be to not only display ranges that are considered extreme for each Market Internal, but to also change the color of the plot when it is within, or beyond, that range. That is exactly what this setting does.
Override Max & Min
While the min-max signal levels have reasonable defaults for each symbol and transformation type, the Override Max and Override Min options allow you to … (wait for it) … override the max … and min … signal levels. This may be useful should you find a different level to be more suitable for your exact configuration.
Reduce Noise
This is the fourth data transformation . While the previous Ratio Norm. Threshold linearly stretches values between a threshold and 0, this setting will exponentially squash values closer to 0 if below the lower signal level.
The purpose of this is to compress data below the signal range, then amplify it as it approaches the signal level. If we are trying to identify extremes (the signal), minimizing values that are not extreme (the noise) can help us visually focus on what matters.
Always keep both signal zones visible
Some traders like to zoom in close to the bars. Others prefer to keep a wider focus. For those that like to zoom in, if both signals were always visible, the bar values can appear squashed and difficult to discern. For those that keep a wider focus, if both signals were not always visible, it's possible to lose context if a signal zone is vertically beyond the pane. This setting allows you to decide which scenario is best for you.
Plot Colors
These define the default color, within signal color, and beyond signal color for Bullish and Bearish directions.
Plot colors should be relative to zero
When enabled, the plot will inherit Bullish colors when above zero and Bearish colors when below zero. When disabled and Directional Colors are enabled (below), the plot will inherit the default Bullish color when rising, and the default Bearish color when falling. Otherwise, the plot will use the default Bullish color for all directions.
Directional colors
When the plot colors should be relative to zero (above), this changes the opacity of a bars color if moving toward zero, where "100" percent is the full value of the original color and "0" is transparent. When the plot colors are NOT relative to zero, the plot will inherit Bullish colors when rising and Bearish colors when falling.
Differentiate RTH from ETH
Market Internal data is typically only available during regular trading hours. When this setting is enabled, the background color of the indicator will change as a reminder that data is not available outside regular trading hours (RTH), if the chart is showing electronic trading hours (ETH).
Show zero line
Similar to always keeping signal zones visible (further up), some traders prefer zooming in while others prefer a wider context. This setting allows you to specify the visibility of the zero line to best suit your trading style.
Linear Regression
Polynomial regressions are great for capturing non-linear patterns in data. TradingView offers a "linear regression curve", which this script is using as a substitute. If you're unfamiliar with either term, think of this like a better moving average.
Symbol
While the Market Internal symbol will display in the status line of the indicator, the status line can be small and require more than a quick glance to read properly. Enabling this setting allows you to specify if / where / how the symbol should display on the indicator to make distinguishing between Market Internals more efficient.
Speaking of symbols, this indicator is designed for, and limited to, the following …
TICK - The TICK subtracts the total number of stocks making a downtick from the total number of stocks making an uptick.
ADD - The Advance Decline Difference subtracts the total number of stocks below yesterdays close from the total number of stocks above yesterdays close.
VOLD - The Volume Difference subtracts the total declining volume from the total advancing volume.
TRIN - The Arms Index (aka. Trading Index) divides the ratio of Advancing Stocks / Volume by the ratio of Declining Stocks / Volume. Given the inverse correlation of this index to market movement, when transforming it to a Ratio or Percent Diff., its values are inverted to preserve the bull-bear sentiment of the transformations.
VIX - The CBOE Volatility Index is derived from SPX index option prices, generating a 30-day forward projection of volatility. Given the inverse correlation of this index to market movement, when transforming it to a Ratio or Percent Diff., its values are inverted and normalized to the sessions first bar to preserve the bull-bear sentiment of the transformations. Note: If you do not have a Cboe CGIF subscription , VIX data will be delayed and plot unexpectedly.
ABVD - The Above VWAP Difference is an unofficial index measuring all stocks above VWAP as a percent difference. For the purposes of this indicator (and brevity), TradingViews PCTABOVEVWAP has has been shortened to simply be ABVD.
TKCD - The Tick Cumulative Difference is an unofficial index that subtracts the total number of market downticks from the total number of market upticks. Where "the TICK" (further up) is a measurement of stocks ticking up and down, TKCD is a measurement of the ticks themselves. For the purposes of this indicator (and brevity), TradingViews UPTKS and DNTKS symbols have been shorted to simply be TKCD.
INSPIRATION
I recently made an indicator automatically identifying / drawing daily percentage levels , based on 4 assumptions. One of these assumptions is about trend days. While trend days do not represent the majority of days, they can have big moves worth understanding, for both capitalization and risk mitigation.
To this end, I discovered:
• Article by Linda Bradford Raschke about Capturing Trend Days.
• Video of Garrett Drinon about Trend Day Trading.
• Videos of Ryan Trost about How To Use ADD and TICK.
• Article by Jason Ruchel about Overview of Key Market Internals.
• Including links to resources outside of TradingView violates the House Rules, but they're not hard to find, if interested.
These discoveries inspired me adopt the underlying symbols in my own trading. I also found myself wanting to make using them easier, the net result being this script.
While coding everything, I also discovered a few symbols I believe warrant serious consideration. Specifically the Percent Above VWAP symbols and the Up Ticks / Down Ticks symbols (referenced as ABVD and TKCD in this indicator, for brevity). I found transforming ABVD or TKCD into a Ratio or Percent Diff. to be an incredibly useful and worthy inclusion.
ABVD is a Market Breadth cousin to Brian Shannon's work, and TKCD is like the 3rd dimension of the TICKs geometry. Enjoy.

StonkBTC - autoswitch secondary series for scalpersSince the drop in March of 2020, the U.S. ETF , SPY, has been correlated with bitcoin's moves, especially during the NY session.
This tool is meant to help traders who want to take advantage of that without having to switch the secondary series between BTCUSD and (generally) SPY when changing the ticker they are viewing.
How this works:
The indicator will automatically switch between bitcoin or equity index depending on what ticker your current chart is. Ideally this tool would be very simple to use.
Options:
Show/hide a 'track price' line
Index choice of SP500, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000. Further selection by ETF, futures, and CFD
Varied bitcoin price sources
Notes:
You will need a separate subscription to TradingView to view realtime CME futures data (if not, it will be delayed by 10 minutes). Because of this, the default option chosen is the CFD for the most complete chart when viewing bitcoin.

LANZ Strategy 3.0🔷 LANZ Strategy 3.0 — Asian Range Fibonacci Strategy with Execution Window Logic
LANZ Strategy 3.0 is a rule-based trading system that utilizes the Asian session range to project Fibonacci levels and manage entries during a defined execution window. Designed for Forex and index traders, this strategy focuses on structured price behavior around key levels before the New York session.
🧠 Core Components:
Asian Session Range Mapping: Automatically detects the high, low, and midpoint during the Asian session.
Fibonacci Level Projection: Projects configurable Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on the Asian range.
Execution Window Logic: Uses the 01:15 NY candle as a reference to validate potential reversals or continuation setups.
Conditional Entry System: Includes logic for limit order entries (buy or sell) at specific Fib levels, with reversal logic if price breaks structure before execution.
Risk Management: Entry orders are paired with dynamic SL and TP based on Fibonacci-based distances, maintaining a risk-reward ratio consistent with intraday strategies.
📊 Visual Features:
Asian session high/low/mid lines.
Fibonacci levels: Original (based on raw range) and Optimized (user-adjustable).
Session background coloring for Asia, Execution Window, and NY session.
Labels and lines for entry, SL, and TP targets.
Dynamic deletion of untriggered orders after execution window expires.
⚙️ How It Works:
The script calculates the Asian session range.
Projects Fibonacci levels from the range.
Waits for the 01:15 NY candle to close to validate a signal.
If valid, a limit entry order (BUY or SELL) is plotted at the selected level.
If price structure changes (e.g., breaks the high/low), reversal logic may activate.
If no trade is triggered, orders are cleared before the NY session.
🔔 Alerts:
Alerts trigger when a valid setup appears after 01:15 NY candle.
Optional alerts for order activation, SL/TP hit, or trade cancellation.
📝 Notes:
Intended for semi-automated or discretionary trading.
Best used on highly liquid markets like Forex majors or indices.
Script parameters include session times, Fib ratios, SL/TP settings, and reversal logic toggle.
Credits:
Developed by LANZ, this script merges traditional session-based analysis with Fibonacci tools and structured execution timing, offering a unique framework for morning volatility plays.
CYCLE BY RiotWolftradingDescription of the "CYCLE" Indicator
The "CYCLE" indicator is a custom Pine Script v5 script for TradingView that visualizes cyclic patterns in price action, dividing the trading day into specific sessions and 90-minute quarters (Q1-Q4). It is designed to identify and display market phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal) along with key support and resistance levels within those sessions. Additionally, it allows customization of boxes, lines, labels, and colors to suit user preferences.
Main Features
Cycle Phases:
Accumulation (1900-0100): Represents the phase where large operators accumulate positions.
Manipulation (0100-0700): Identifies potential manipulative moves to mislead retail traders.
Distribution (0700-1300): The phase where large operators distribute their positions.
Continuation/Reversal (1300-1900): Indicates whether the price continues the trend or reverses.
90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
Divides each 6-hour cycle (360 minutes) into four 90-minute quarters (Q1: 00:00-01:30, Q2: 01:30-03:00, Q3: 03:00-04:30, Q4: 04:30-06:00 UTC).
Each quarter is displayed with a colored box (Q1: light purple, Q2: light blue, Q3: light gray, Q4: light pink) and labels (defaulted to black).
Support and Resistance Visualization:
Draws boxes or lines (based on settings) showing the high and low levels of each session.
Optionally displays accumulated volume at the highs and lows within the boxes.
Daily Lines and Last 3 Boxes:
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Add the Indicator to TradingView
Open TradingView and select the chart where you want to apply the indicator (e.g., UMG9OOR on a 5-minute timeframe, as shown in the screenshot).
Go to the Pine Editor (at the bottom of the TradingView interface).
Copy and paste the provided code.
Click Compile and then Add to Chart.
Step 2: Configure the Indicator
Click on the indicator name on the chart ("CYCLE") and select Settings (or double-click the name).
Adjust the options based on your needs:
Cycle Phases: Enable/disable phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal) and adjust their time slots if needed.
90-Minute Quarters: Enable/disable quarters (Q1-Q4).
Step 3: Interpret the Indicator
Identify Cycle Phases:
Observe the red boxes indicating the phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, etc.).
The high and low levels within each phase are potential support/resistance zones.
If volume is enabled, pay attention to the accumulated volume at highs and lows, as it may indicate the strength of those levels.
Use the 90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
The colored boxes (Q1-Q4) divide the day into 90-minute segments.
Each quarter shows the price range (high and low) during that period.
Use these boxes to identify price patterns within each quarter, such as breakouts or consolidations.
The labels (Q1, Q2, etc.) help you track time and anticipate potential moves in the next quarter.
Analyze Support and Resistance:
The high and low levels of each phase/quarter act as support and resistance.
Daily lines (if enabled) show key levels from the previous day, useful for planning entries/exits.
The "last 3 boxes below price" (if enabled) highlight potential support levels the price might target.
Avoid Manipulation:
During the Manipulation phase (0100-0700), be cautious of sharp moves or false breakouts.
Use the high/low levels of this phase to identify potential traps (as explained in your first question about manipulation candles).
Step 4: Trading Strategy
Entries and Exits:
Support/Resistance: Use the high/low levels of phases and quarters to set entry or exit points.
For example, if the price bounces off a Q1 support level, consider a buy.
Breakouts: If the price breaks a high/low of a quarter (e.g., Q2), wait for confirmation to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Volume: If accumulated volume is high near a key level, that level may be more significant.
Risk Management:
Place stop-loss orders below lows (for buys) or above highs (for sells) identified by the indicator.
Avoid trading during the Manipulation phase unless you have a specific strategy to handle false breakouts.
Time Context:
Use the quarters (Q1-Q4) to plan your trades based on time. For example, if Q3 is typically volatile in your market, prepare for larger moves between 03:00-04:30 UTC.
Step 5: Adjustments and Testing
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator is set for a 5-minute timeframe (as in the screenshot), but you can test it on other timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 15-minute) by adjusting the time slots if needed.
Adjust Colors and Styles: If the default colors are not visible on your chart, change them for better clarity.
---
📌 1. **Accumulation: Strong Institutional Activity**
- During the **accumulation phase, we see **high volume: 82.773K, which suggests strong buying interest**, likely from institutional players.
- This sets the base for the following upward move in price.
---
📌 2. **Manipulation: False Breakout with Lower Volume**
- Later, there's a manipulation phase where price breaks above previous highs, but the volume (71.814K) is **lower than during accumulation**.
- This implies that buyers are not as aggressive as before—no real demandbehind the breakout.
- It’s likely a bull trap, where smart money is selling into the breakout to exit their positions.
---
### 📌 3. Distribution: Weakness and Lack of Demand
- The market enters a distribution phase, and volume drops even further (only 7.914K).
- Price struggles to go higher, and you start seeing rejections at the top.
- This shows that demand is drying up, and smart money is offloading positions**—not accumulating anymore.
---
### 💡 Why Take the Short Here?
- Volume is not increasing with new highs—showing weak demand**.
- The manipulation volume is weaker than the accumulation volume, confirming the breakout was likely false.
- Structure starts to break down (Q levels falling), which confirms weakness.
- This creates a high-probability short setup:
- **Entry:** after confirmation of distribution and structural breakdown.
- **Stop loss:** above the manipulation high.
- **Target:** down toward previous lows or value zones.
---
### ✅ Conclusion
Since the manipulation volume failed to exceed the accumulation volume, the breakout lacked real strength. Combined with decreasing volume in the distribution phase, this indicates fading demand and supply taking control—which justifies entering a short position.

3AM EST CRT Indicator3AM EST Candle Range Theory Indicator
The 3AM EST Candle Range Theory Indicator is designed to highlight a crucial period in the trading day for Forex and other markets that operate 24/7. This indicator focuses on the 3AM EST candle, which represents the early hours of the U.S. market morning and the midpoint of the European trading session. During this period, volatility often picks up, and the 3AM candle can serve as a powerful reference point for price action throughout the day.
Key Features of the Indicator
3AM Candle Highlighting: The 3AM candle is automatically highlighted in blue, making it easy to spot on the chart. This helps traders quickly identify this pivotal candle without manually searching for it.
Range Lines: The high and low of the 3AM candle are marked by black lines extending across the day. These levels often act as support and resistance, influencing price movement throughout the trading session. Observing how the price interacts with these levels can provide insights into potential breakouts, reversals, or consolidations.
Labels: The high of the 3AM candle is labeled as "3am CRH" (Candle Range High) and the low as "3am CRL" (Candle Range Low). These labels serve as visual cues for traders, reinforcing the importance of these levels on the chart.
How to Use the 3AM EST Candle Range Indicator
Support and Resistance: The high and low of the 3AM candle often serve as strong intraday support and resistance levels. Traders can observe if the price respects or breaks these levels to make decisions about potential entries and exits.
Breakout Trading: If the price breaks above the 3am high (CRH), it can signal bullish momentum, especially when accompanied by increased volume. Conversely, a break below the 3am low (CRL) may indicate bearish momentum. These breakouts can provide potential trade opportunities.
Reversals and Continuations: Often, price will test and reject one of these levels, creating an opportunity for reversal trades. If the price re-enters the 3AM candle range after breaking out, it could signal a potential continuation back into the original trend.
Session Range Guidance: Since the 3AM candle encapsulates both the early U.S. and active European sessions, it often provides a strong reference for the range and sentiment in the early trading hours. The 3AM range can give a sense of market direction and volatility for the day.
Benefits
Clear Visual Cues: The blue candle highlight, black lines, and labels make this indicator visually intuitive and easy to understand at a glance.
Useful Across Market Conditions: Whether markets are trending or ranging, the 3AM high and low can serve as reliable reference points for intraday support and resistance.
Applicable to Various Strategies: This indicator can enhance a variety of trading strategies, including breakout, range trading, and trend-following.
Summary
The 3AM EST Candle Range Theory Indicator provides traders with a reliable way to gauge intraday price levels based on the 3AM EST candle. By observing how the price interacts with the high and low of this candle, traders can gain insights into potential support, resistance, and breakout points. This can be particularly useful for short-term traders looking to capitalize on intraday volatility or longer-term traders seeking reference points for daily price action analysis.
SmartVPSGTitle: Identifying Volume Spikes, Price Movements and Gap Ups: A TradingView Script
Introduction:
In the world of trading, identifying volume spikes and price movements can provide valuable insights into market trends and potential trading opportunities. In this article, we'll explore a TradingView script that helps traders visualize volume spikes, price up moves with volume spikes, and gap-up days on their charts.
Detecting Price Up Moves:
The script starts by calculating price up moves. It compares the current day's closing price with the previous day's closing price and checks if it has increased by 3% or more. This helps traders spot significant upward price movements.
Detecting Volume Spurts:
Next, the script focuses on detecting volume spikes, which are often associated with increased market activity and potential trading opportunities. It compares the current day's volume with the highest volume of the previous nine sessions. If the current volume exceeds all the volumes of the previous nine sessions, it is considered a volume spurt.
Example:
Let's consider a hypothetical scenario where we have the following volume data for a stock:
Day 1: 100,000
Day 2: 80,000
Day 3: 120,000
Day 4: 150,000
Day 5: 200,000
Day 6: 90,000
Day 7: 110,000
Day 8: 130,000
Day 9: 140,000
Day 10: 250,000 (current day)
To determine if there is a volume spurt on Day 10, the script compares the current day's volume (250,000) with the highest volume of the previous nine sessions. In this case, the highest volume among the previous nine sessions is 200,000 (on Day 5). Since the current day's volume (250,000) exceeds the highest volume of the previous nine sessions (200,000), it is considered a volume spurt.
Identifying Gap-Up Days:
Gap-up days occur when the market opens significantly higher than the previous day's close. To identify these days, the script compares the current day's low price with the previous day's high price. If the low price is greater than the previous day's high, it is marked as a gap-up day.
Visualizing the Findings:
To provide a clear visual representation of the identified patterns, the script uses different shapes and colors. First, it plots small red dots above the candles whenever a volume spurt is detected. These dots help traders quickly identify periods of increased volume activity.
For price up moves with volume spikes, the script utilizes blue triangular shapes below the candles. This allows traders to pinpoint instances where both price and volume are showing positive signs, indicating potential bullish movements.
Additionally, the script incorporates green candles to represent gap-up days. These candles help traders recognize days when the market opens with a significant upward gap, suggesting a potential shift in market sentiment.
Conclusion:
The TradingView script discussed in this article provides traders with a visual representation of volume spikes , price up moves with volume spikes , and gap-up days . By incorporating these visual cues into their analysis, traders can gain valuable insights into market trends and potential trading opportunities.
Remember, this script should be used for educational and informational purposes only and does not serve as financial advice or recommendations. Traders are encouraged to customize and modify the script according to their specific trading strategies and risk tolerance.
Share this script with other traders on TradingView to enhance their chart analysis and trading decisions.
PS: This TradingView script is designed to work specifically on the daily timeframe (daily candles). It calculates and identifies volume spurts based on the volume data of the daily timeframe. Since it is designed for the daily timeframe, it may not produce accurate results or work as intended on other timeframes.
Ext/Non EMA SignalsThis allows for one EMA to reference the regular session well the other references the extended session. A green arrow will appear above a bear candle closing above both the EMAs and a Red arrow on bull candles closing below both.
This saves me time from jumping back and forth from extended sessions and regular session.
Let me know if you have any questions, I just recently started using Pine Editor to build indicators I was not able to find in the library.
Koalafied Initial Balance Levels and ExtensionsShows the Initial Balance and range extensions for either the Daily session or individual market sessions (Asia, London, New York).
Initial Balance is the range represented by the first two segments (typically half-hour segments) of a trading session. Range extensions are a function of the longer-term trader participation, pushing price outside of the beginning 'fair' range established by the local traders. With the introduction of 24/7 markets the initial balance is often now regarded as less important than in the past, however re-calculating IB for multiple trading sessions may reinstitute insight to Market Direction and Confidence

Gold IBH/IBL with IBM, Overnight Levels, OVM, and ONVPOCThe Initial Balance (IB) indicator for gold trading is a valuable tool for identifying key price levels and potential trade setups. Here's an overview of how it works:
Initial Balance Calculation
The Initial Balance for gold is calculated from 8:20 AM to 9:20 AM EST, coinciding with the COMEX open. This one-hour period establishes crucial reference points for the trading day.
Key Levels
The indicator displays several important price levels:
IB High: The highest price reached during the Initial Balance period
IB Low: The lowest price reached during the Initial Balance period
IB Midpoint: The average of the IB High and IB Low
These levels often serve as significant support and resistance areas, with many traders placing stop-losses around them.
Overnight Levels
In addition to the IB levels, the indicator shows overnight price action:
ONH: Overnight High
ONL: Overnight Low
ONM: Overnight Midpoint
Overnight VWAP: Volume Weighted Average Price from the overnight session
These overnight levels have a high probability of being tested during the COMEX trading session, making them valuable reference points for traders.
Trading Applications
Traders can use the IB and overnight levels for various purposes:
Setting profit targets
Identifying potential trade entry points
Managing risk by placing stop-losses at key levels
Gauging overall market sentiment and volatility
The levels established during both the Initial Balance and overnight sessions are likely to be touched during the COMEX trading session. This insight allows traders to make more informed decisions and enhances their trading strategies.
If you have more questions about the trading strategy, please DM me, and I can explain further. I also have probabilities of all these levels being broken during the COMEX trading hours, which gives us confidence to hold our trades to targets.
Understanding and utilizing these levels can provide traders with a competitive edge in gold trading, helping them make more informed decisions based on early market dynamics and overnight price action.
ICT Silver Bullet with signals
The "ICT Silver Bullet with signals" indicator (inspired from the lectures of "The Inner Circle Trader" (ICT)),
goes a step further than the ICT Silver Bullet publication, which I made for LuxAlgo :
• uses HTF candles
• instant drawing of Support & Resistance (S/R) lines when price retraces into FVG
• NWOG - NDOG S/R lines
• signals
The Silver Bullet (SB) window which is a specific 1-hour interval where a Fair Value Gap (FVG) pattern can be formed.
When price goes back to the FVG, without breaking it, Support & Resistance lines will be drawn immediately.
There are 3 different Silver Bullet windows (New York local time):
The London Open Silver Bullet (03 AM — 04 AM ~ 03:00 — 04:00)
The AM Session Silver Bullet (10 AM — 11 AM ~ 10:00 — 11:00)
The PM Session Silver Bullet (02 PM — 03 PM ~ 14:00 — 15:00)
🔶 USAGE
This technique can visualise potential support/resistance lines, which can be used as targets.
The script contains 2 main components:
• forming of a Fair Value Gap (FVG)
• drawing support/resistance (S/R) lines
🔹 Forming of FVG
When HTF candles forms an FVG, the FVG will be drawn at the end (close) of the last HTF candle.
To make it easier to visualise the 2 HTF candles that form the FVG, you can enable
• SHOW -> HTF candles
During the SB session, when a FVG is broken, the FVG will be removed, together with its S/R lines.
The same goes if price did not retrace into FVG at the last bar of the SB session
Only exception is when "Remove broken FVG's" is disabled.
In this case a FVG can be broken, as long as price bounces back before the end of the SB session, it will remain to be visible:
🔹 Drawing support/resistance lines
S/R target lines are drawn immediately when price retraces into the FVG.
They will remain updated until they are broken (target hit)
Potential S/R lines are formed by:
• previous swings (swing settings (left-right)
• New Week Opening Gap (NWOG): close on Friday - weekly open
• New Day Opening Gap (NWOG): close previous day - current daily open
Only non-broken lines are included.
Broken =
• minimum of open and close below potential S/R line
• maximum of open and close above potential S/R line
NDOG lines are coloured fuchsia (as in the ICT lectures), NWOG are coloured white (darkmode) or black (lightmode ~ ICT lectures)
Swing line colour can be set as desired.
Here S/R includes NDOG lines:
The same situation, with "Extend Target-lines to their source" enabled:
Here with NWOG lines:
This publication contains a "Minimum Trade Framework (mTFW)", which represents the best-case expected price delivery, this is not your actual trade entry - exit range.
• 40 ticks for index futures or indices
• 15 pips for Forex pairs
The minimum distance (if applicable) can be shown by enabling "Show" - "Minimum Trade Framework" -> blue arrow from close to mTFW
Potential S/R lines needs to be higher (bullish) or lower (bearish) than mTFW.
🔶 SETTINGS
(check USAGE for deeper insights and explanation)
🔹 Only last x bars: when enabled, the script will do most of the calculations at these last x candles, potentially this can speeds calculations.
🔹 Swing settings (left-right): Sets the length, which will set the lookback period/sensitivity of the ZigZag patterns (which directs the trend and points for S/R lines)
🔹 FVG
HTF (minutes): 1-15 minutes.
• When the chart TF is equal of higher, calculations are based on current TF.
• Chart TF > 15 minutes will give the warning: "Please use a timeframe <= 15 minutes".
Remove broken FVG's: when enabled the script will remove FVG (+ associated S/R lines) immediately when FVG is broken at opposite direction.
FVG's still will be automatically removed at the end of the SB session, when there is no retrace, together with associated S/R lines,...
~ trend: Only include FVG in the same direction as the current trend
Note -> when set 'right' (swing setting) rather high ( > 3), he trend change will be delayed as well (default 'right' max 5)
Extend: extend FVG to max right side of SB session
🔹 Targets – support/resistance
Extend Target-lines to their source: extend lines to their origin
Colours (Swing S/R lines)
🔹 Show
SB session: show lines and labels of SB session (+ colour)
• Labels can be disabled separately in the 'Style' section, colour is set at the 'Inputs' section
Trend : Show trend (ZigZag, coloured ~ trend)
HTF candles: Show the 2 HTF candles that form the FVG
Minimum Trade Framework: blue arrow (if applicable)
🔶 ALERTS
There are 4 signals provided (bullish/bearish):
FVG Formed
FVG Retrace
Target reached
FVG cancelled
You can choose between dynamic alerts - only 1 alert needs to be set for all signals, or you can set specific alerts as desired.

Earnings Price Move Cheat Sheet [KT]Hello!
This script looks to distinguish replicable sequences and correlations between earnings releases and price. The indicator calculates the average 1-session to 20-session performance of an asset prior to an earnings release, and the 1-session to 20-session performance of an asset subsequent an earnings release.
You can select the number of sessions the script calculates for asset performance.
In the image above the script calculates the average 1-session performance following an earnings surprise, earnings miss, and in general. 20 sessions is the maximum value!
Also measured is the average performance of an asset before and after earnings, in addition to the average performance following an earnings surprise "green earnings" and the average performance following an earnings miss "red earnings".
I included VaR and CVaR calculations - using the historical method - in the script. For those of you unfamiliar with the metrics, both look to quantify the risk of financial loss for a portfolio, or even a particular position.
The script also calculates the 1st - 5th percentile for earnings losses. A more comprehensive explanation of the metrics is stored in tooltips in the user input tab.
The script also calculates the highest high and lowest low following an earnings release, up to 20 sessions, and calculates the difference between the two.
Keep in mind that a company might not have a significant number of earnings misses, or may have only traded publicly for a short while. If true, the resulting earnings/price calculations *will* be misleading - there is an insufficient sample size; no correlations are ascertainable.
I will be working on this script more, so let me know if there is anything you would like included!
